I just shot John Lennon. |
Mr. Lennon would want me free, and I'd like to clear that up. |
I don't think I'm a celebrity. A chimpanzee could have done what I did. |
I wasn't angry the night I shot him. |
I really didn't mean to hurt anybody. I liked John Lennon. |
I've pent up all my aggression, kept swallowing it and swallowing it. |
I feel that I see John Lennon now as not a celebrity. I did then. I saw him as a cardboard cutout on an album cover. |
I was a master at keeping my feelings in. |
Once you take a life, that's it. I don't even deserve to be here. |
I willingly took John Lennon's life. What I did was despicable. |
It's a horrible thing to realize what you've done. |
I wanted to be videotaped. |
